to port or not to port my FP green

the turbo is currently on the car and i was thinking of taking it out and porting it really good, but as you might imagine this is going to be a PITA....
i was wondering if anyone has fist hand experience with a ported VS on-ported GREEN.
will it be worth going through the hassle?

My hassle in porting the green is the downtime its going to be without a car. Unless you have your old turbo you can just put in to use temp while waiting for it to be ported. Then i would not go through all that trouble. Its only a slight differences.

Are you doing the porting yourself? if so, then you should do it. If your sending it out to get it ported then dont go through the hassle unless you have a beater not planning to take your car out for a while or a old turbo to swap in to temp use for the time being. Either way good luck to ya!!

from my readings, I would say porting allows you to "hold" more boost up top...
